Services - for employers and employees

We work with employers and employees which means we have a well-rounded appreciaion of the issue from both perspectives; it is important to be able to consider the bigger picture so that your decisions are not made in a vacuum. 

We work in partnership with clients to advise on the issues you are facing, advising you on the options you have and the likely consequences of each option.  You decide - we advise.  Most work is undertaken by telephone and email, so location is not usually an obstruction.  Meetings will be held at a mutually convenient location.

As Scott Johnston is a qualified barrister with 20 years experience in various courts, tribunals and forums you can count on our advocacy expertise both in terms of presenting your case and also helping you and your witnesses prepare for such a stressful event.  Most cases are resolved through finding a negotiated settlement.  We are experts in such negotiations whether it involves hundreds of pounds or hundreds of thousands of pounds.

For Employers

We can provide you with contracts and policies written in Plain English.  This not only gives you legal protection; it also creates clear communication which should reduce the likelihood of a legal dispute arising.

Employment Tribunals 

We are experienced in conducting cases for both sides, Employer and Employee.  As well as guiding you through the evidence and preparation, we will also help to prepare your witnesses.

For Employees 

Whether you are facing a Disciplinary Hearing or wish to submit a Grievance or commence Employment Tribunal proceedings, we can guide you, with compassion and understanding, as well as legal expertise.
